“As a self taught artist hailing from Coombs, I enjoy creating captivating pieces that blend semi realism with abstract. My paintings are characterized by unique textures and my unwavering dedication to authenticity - by only selling originals.
I take immense joy in undertaking custom projects by bringing your vision to life while infusing it with my distinct creativity. Thru my art I aim to create meaningful connections and evoke emotion in those who experience my work.”
Mara Klardie
My name is Mara Klardie and I've always enjoyed painting both watercolour and acrylic. I've lived on Vancouver Island close to 20 years and have a formal education in Visual Arts from Kwantlen College and SFU. Over the years I've taught watercolour classes embracing the fun dynamic energy of paint and ink. My go to style is quick brush strokes and bold colours and am looking forward to a contest that will call upon these traits along with speed and fun.

My husband and I moved to Ladysmith two and a half years ago from Montreal and couldn't be happier that we did. I love to travel and cook but, most of all, I love to draw and paint.
I would say I have been an artist most of my life, dabbling in pencil drawings, pastels, watercolors and oils from a young age. I've had the pleasure of taking some art classes over the years but have no formal training. Practice has been my best teacher.
